    Coach Mike Norvell on FSU Rebuild & Jordan Travis' Greatest Moment | Travis Take Two Ep. 15

    Welcome back to Travis Take Two! Hosted by brothers Jordan Travis (FSU & NFL quarterback) and Devon Travis (FSU & MLB second baseman), this episode features the man who changed everything—Florida State head coach Mike Norvell. Before Coach hops on, the guys break down the 12-team College Football Playoff bracket, picking Georgia to win it all, calling Miami as the most vulnerable upset pick, and debating which coaches have the most on the line this postseason.  They dive into Carson Beck's importance to Georgia's run, what makes Oregon's offense so dangerous, and why defense still wins championships in moments like these. When Coach Norvell joins, the conversation becomes a masterclass in resilience and leadership. He opens up about the humbling experience of being fired at Memphis, what he learned about faith and perspective during that season, and how he approached the massive rebuild at Florida State. Coach shares stories from that first team meeting, establishing the brotherhood and championship culture that would eventually lead to an undefeated ACC championship season, and why every decision as a head coach carries weight that impacts people's lives.  The highlight? His favorite Jordan Travis moment—when JT, banged up and barely able to practice, looked him in the eye before the 2021 Syracuse game and said "I'm playing this damn game," then willed FSU to a last-second victory that became the turning point for the program's resurgence. From rebuilding a dynasty to his message for Seminole Nation moving forward, this episode is about staying the course, trusting the process, and believing that tough times make the best stories.

    College Football Playoff is Broken & Jarrian Jones' NFL Journey | Travis Take Two Ep. 14

    Welcome back to Travis Take Two! Hosted by brothers Jordan Travis (FSU & NFL quarterback) and Devon Travis (FSU & MLB second baseman), this episode kicks off with the guys going OFF on the College Football Playoff committee. Still scarred from FSU's 2023 snub, Jordan and Devon break down the absolute mess of the 2024 playoff rankings—Notre Dame getting completely left out despite finishing strong, James Madison and Tulane jumping in over legit contenders, Alabama backing in after getting destroyed by Georgia, and Miami somehow finding their way through the chaos. They question everything: why do weekly rankings even matter if the committee doesn't compile analytics until the end? Why does head-to-head matter some years but not others? What's the actual criteria? The frustration is real, and they don't hold back. Then FSU defensive back Jarrian Jones joins the show fresh off his rookie season with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jarrian gets real about transitioning from college to the pros, how veteran nickel Jordan Lewis completely changed his approach to preparation and recovery, and why the FSU mentality of "I got this" had to evolve in the NFL. He shares the behind-the-scenes work that no one sees, talks about that iconic viral photo he never got paid for, and opens up about his philosophy on life and football—doing it his way, having fun regardless of circumstances, and being the hunter instead of the hunted. From Florida State brotherhood to NFL grind, this episode is about staying true to yourself, putting in the work when no one's watching, and keeping God first through it all.

    ASU Coach Kenny Dillingham on Loyalty, Authenticity & Helping Dreams Come True | TT2 Ep. 13

    Welcome back to Travis Take Two! Hosted by brothers Jordan Travis (FSU & NFL quarterback) and Devon Travis (FSU & MLB second baseman), this episode features Arizona State head coach Kenny Dillingham. Before Kenny joins, the guys break down Florida State's brutal 2024 season finale against Florida, the lack of fight they witnessed all year, and what it feels like to watch a program hit rock bottom after back-to-back magical seasons. They get real about the transfer portal era, NIL chaos, and why writing checks to Battle's End matters more than complaining on Twitter—before diving into their thoughts on coaching loyalty and what's broken in college football right now. When Kenny hops on, the conversation turns into a masterclass in building culture and staying true to yourself. He shares his journey from FSU offensive coordinator to Auburn OC to becoming one of the youngest head coaches in the country at Arizona State—where he inherited just 38 scholarship players and transformed a 3-9 disaster into a Big 12 championship team in year two. Kenny opens up about the Lane Kiffin situation, why he turned down multiple job offers to stay loyal to his players, and what it really takes to lead young men through constant roster turnover. From that unforgettable Jordan scramble against Syracuse that changed everything in 2022 to why he doesn't even care about holding trophies, this episode is about authenticity, refusing to compromise your values, and remembering that helping people matters more than wins and losses.

    FSU Road Struggles, Bowl Hopes & World Series Champion's 7-Year Grind ft. Justin Dean | TT2 EP 12

    Welcome back to Travis Take Two! Hosted by brothers Jordan Travis (FSU & NFL quarterback) and Devon Travis (FSU & MLB second baseman), this episode features World Series champion outfielder Justin Dean. Before Justin joins, the guys break down Florida State’s win over Virginia Tech, the reality of being 0–3 on the road, and what’s really at stake in a tough stretch at NC State and Florida. They zoom out into the bigger college and NFL picture—talking coaching rumors, quarterback futures, and why some stadiums just feel different—before rolling into their weekly picks segment presented by Martoccio Law Group. When Justin hops on, the conversation turns into a masterclass in perseverance. He shares his journey from 17th-round pick grinding for years in the minors and winter ball to getting the call to L.A., making his big-league debut with the Dodgers, and becoming a World Series champion. Justin opens up about leaning on faith and family, what he learned from sharing a clubhouse with stars like Mookie Betts, and why baseball’s constant failure makes it the closest thing to real life. From the wild World Series wall-ball play everyone remembers to FaceTiming his mom with the words “we’re going to the league,” this episode is about staying ready, honoring the grind, and believing that patience plus preparation can change everything.

    Our Dad Raised Two Pro Athletes - Here's What He Taught Us | Travis Take Two Ep. 11

    Welcome back to Travis Take Two! Hosted by brothers Jordan Travis (FSU & NFL quarterback) and Devon Travis (FSU & MLB second baseman), this episode features a special guest: their dad, Tony “Pops” Travis. The guys open up about Florida State’s tough loss to Clemson—what went wrong, why it hit so hard, and what the ‘Noles still have to prove in the upcoming stretch against NC State, Virginia Tech, and Florida. It’s part film-room breakdown, part therapy session, and a reminder that a season is defined more by how you respond than by a single game. When Tony joins the show, the conversation turns deeply personal. He shares raw stories about raising a family of athletes, the early signs that Jordan had “it” at quarterback, and what it was like watching both of his sons suffer devastating leg injuries that changed the course of their careers. Together, they talk about faith, anger, chronic pain, discipline, and what it truly means to stay grounded when life doesn’t go to plan—reframing injuries, setbacks, and even FSU’s current struggles as speed bumps, not dead ends.

Hosted by brothers Jordan Travis (FSU & NFL Quarterback) and Devon Travis (FSU & MLB Second Baseman), this episode features Ryan Goins, bench coach for the Los Angeles Angels and Devon's former teammate. Devon and Ryan discuss their journey from competing for the same position with the Toronto Blue Jays to becoming best friends, with the conversation covering the World Series, Ryan's coaching career, Mike Trout's greatness, and how competition ultimately strengthened their friendship. Jordan delivers a passionate defense of Florida State football after their 0-6 start, arguing the real issue is a transfer-heavy roster lacking the loyalty previous generations built through adversity. He reflects on how struggling together created championship foundations, while today's college football has become "minor league NFL" where players chase money over building program history and brotherhood. The episode touches on Brian Kelly's LSU firing, Lane Kiffin's future, Indiana's success, and gambling integrity concerns in sports. Devon pays emotional tribute to Ryan for supporting him during difficult post-baseball times, while Jordan offers perspective on injuries and keeping teammates inspired.

Ahmmon shares his experience with a career-ending injury and the identity crisis that followed.

All three men reflect on their Palm Beach County roots and discovering new passions that reignite competitive fire.
